Abstract
Successful small project execution is important as 40-50% of industry capital budgets are spent on small projects. The average CII company plant spends $25 to $30 million on small capital projects.   Small projects, as defined by this research, are projects with a total installed cost range of $100,000 to $2,000,000. Small projects are typically focused on increasing production capacities, improving product quality, improving efficiencies, and maintaining plant functionality for continued operation and production.  Small project success can be achieved by:      Front end planning that incorporates project checklists     Core project teams that can improve schedule and decrease the funding approval cycle     Standard written processes specifically geared to small projects     Maintenance projects that are combined with a small capital projects program     Alliances and preferred supplier agreements
